I created a stackoverflow question [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75909529/hugo-adding-http-equiv-refresh-content-0-on-build-make-it-stop), but basically I’m trying to create a static contact page following [this article](https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/creating-static-content-that-uses-partials/265/19), and I am using a shortcode to insert the contact form.

This appears to work when I run `hugo serve --ignoreCache --disableFastRender --noHTTPCache -D`, but when I build the site creates an infinite loop on the `baseURL/contact/` page by way of `http-equiv=refresh`.

Help?

Maybe this:

```auto
aliases:
- /contact.html
- /blog/contact/
- /blog/contact.html

```

If I didn’t get me wrong, you intend to insert a contact form on the page with a shortcode, but I suggest you use partial instead, or create a separate contact layout page, then specify it on the frontmater page you created.

layout: contact
